Depends on the eps foam and us blanks sells PU foam blanks as well so maybe you should look at catalog and most eps boards have a vented leash plug
Ok so pulled the trigger on a board today I saw and just fell in love with. A true work of art and a price I couldn't back away from. It is a handshaped Austin surfboard 9'4"x23 1/2x3 1/8 Soul glider the finish is absolutely gorgeous as you can see in the video attached. This board was used twice and then stored away. The owner gave surfing a go and decided it wasn't for him. I got the fin, leash, bag, brand new wetsuit, Patagonia booties, gloves, and hood. All for $700. I will probably sell off the wetsuit booties gloves and hood since I don't need them so the price will even be less after that. Video is attached. So beautiful I almost don't want to surf it!! Concave nose, square tail, single fun, glassing is 8 oz volan and 8 oz silene on deck, 6 oz silene on bottom. I was told this board originally went for $2k!! So did I score???

No, No you did not! Dude snap back to reality please? Yoou were the topic of conversation while I surfed with another SI member today. We were trying to figure you out. Are you a kook who wants to surf and justifies his existence here on the forum by posting how much money he spends on boards and if we think he got a good deal or, are you just some guy who craves acceptance from a bunch of guys on some obscure website? Anyway dude take some time off and go find some waves for the 50k in surf boards you have and learn to surf, have some fun and chill out about your latest purchase . If you do infact have all the boards you speak of then go man go, go find some surf and if you buy a custom board make sure it is custom made for you by a shaper and not some used piece of crap made for someone else who put there thoughts and ideas into the board.. You can get a great lb custom made for you for around 600 American. Stop already and go surf okay?
I was the topic of your conversation today? For real? Dude how sad must your life be if your sitting in the water today and instead of saying wow look at the rack on that chick or man would I like to tap that ass on the beach or dude what a beautiful day it is today or man I can wait to crack a beer and roll a fatty when I get home, you instead were consumed in conversation about ole 2fun and my antics on this site!!! That is pretty hysterical man!
Yeah I know But, I'm not 16 or without friends and you seem to make me realize that I have it pretty good As far as looking at racks on chicks and ass laying on the beach and wishing? Do you use lotion or spit while you watch hours of porn on your p.c. since you never surf I can only imagine you sit in front of your p.c. and jiz all over yourself. Don't get me wrong We weren't consumed by your antics we were just surfing near a surf school and thought that would be a good place for you to start ... you know ? with some young buff dude pushing you into waves? Oh and they had lots of boards for you to try so it kinda would be what you call a demo day! No 1100$ grovelers though and no wet suits or gloves or hoods or custom boards made for someone other than you. Did you really buy a custom board made for someone else and believe you have a custom made board for you? I must admit that your quiver is impressive even if it is imaginary . Do you own cats? are you currently being watched by the atf (a$$ to mouth) club? Do you live with your Mom? I say most of this in fun 2fun and I was only having fun with you but most of my questions are for real. I wish you would change your screen name to 2Pac just for street cred and it would look cool while you crack a beer or when you buy weed, if you buy weed and if your mom lets you crack a beer and I have another question when/if you crack a beer do you use a coozie or do you use the bible as a coaster? One more , I almost forgot are you surfing today? Anyway man I'm your biggest fan I think you make this little site better.
This reminds me of some guys i have met fishing. They get all hyped up, go out and buy a big boat on credit, get all the poles and gear, talk nothing but fishing for a couple of years. They will run out to the canyons a few times, struggle to get others to go along, eventually sell the boat at a loss and you never see them again. The fire burns too hot of the line then burns itself out in short order. Nothing wrong with that but you can see it coming. Surfing is fun but you need to pace your stoke or it will become a burden that you will want a break from and may never return.
Hey, guys....if our peer 2FUn buys a new board and really likes it, who are we to judge him for his purchase? If you view the pictures, the Austin he just bought looks great, IMHO. Enthusiasm can take all of us into strange corners, but let's let 2FUN live with his pleasures! Ya have to admit--it is a beauty of a board. I would love to own it as well.....and so would ALL of you!!! Live it, or live with it!!!
Shark deterrent swirl, nice That's a lovely guest room, I think the board would look better on an endangered redwood giant table. Barry: those are motion pictures.
see how hospital drugs lifted her spirit by the end there? science lol now you're a meth addict. lets see the chart. thats a gnarls-cockens worthy bail tho. damn dude!
This site is such a trip... wish I was 16 again but sadly I am not.Great family, great friends, great life! I don't care what I spend on something cause I have worked hard enough in my life that I have plenty of it. The dot com years were great for me.... Don't need porn, but occasionally will use some viagra and why not if its good enough for Hugh Heifner, its good enough for me! Not into the ATF? thing you are talking about but YOU seem to know a lot about it... hmmmm? At the end of the day, we all go into the water the same but we are from different worlds once we come out. I have fun on this site too, and if me being on here brings some comic relief or interest to you, then Im happy to do it. Mahalo!
Dude- other then sounds gross... It looks like you totally scored on that surfbort! It looks perfect as far as the shape- just what everyone was suggesting! And the condition and style of the bort is amazing! For 700??? Seems like you got a really good deal- that bort would probably sell for 700 without any of the extra stuff- (longboard don't even come with find! That 80$ extra!) sell off the wetsuite unless if fits and is good to have an extra. Take good care of that board! I would keep it in the board bag, specially when traveling to and from the beach- it's easier to ding or scratch the bottom of longboards. It you want to keep it nice- before you wax it- put some car wax on it specially the bottom- it will keep looking nice new and shinny Have fun with that! Good choice!
Thanks man! I agree with you 100% I don't know what the problem is with some on this site. Maybe its a jealously thing, or maybe something else, either way I don't care. This board is so gorgeous for $700 bucks (minus selling off the extra stuff so for less) I would be happy hanging it on my wall as an art piece! Can't wait to ride it!
Yea idk either- I am happy for the once in a while threads that actually have something to do with surfing... Hope you get some good waves! Remember to try to move the fin around a little too
Thanks brotha! I've been staring at it all day with no swell in sight around here. Its amazing when you look at a quality made board you really start to see what people are talking about when it comes to the construction of things. This board is SOLID, Beautiful and very well made. Only thing is it is so beautiful I almost dont want to to put it in the water....BUT I WILL!!
